So I got this from Martha Stewart for gravy.
Broth, drippings and flour. Anyone else make gravy like this? I am making broth by boiling the neck. If I'm doin anything wrong let a bruva know. Any other easy recipes for gravy?
Figured I'd make this for all other turkey day dishes and left overs. Turkey went in at 5:50AM, can't wait.

Drippings + a rue (equal mix of flour and fat -usually butter) = how most of the world makes a gravy. That + seasoning (salt, pepper, poutry seasoning and whatever else you like) and you'll have the best gravy going. Last year I started off the turkey upside down on a bed of onions, celery and carrots. I basted with a mix of butter and chicken stock. Then flipped mid cook and browned up the skin. I made dinner for 15 and EVERYONE said it was the best gravy they ever had.

Oh yeah, does anyone know if I can use the bag of gizzards for anything?

Wife had the idea to fry them up, chop them into little bitty pieces, and add them to the gravy.
Sounded gross, but quite tasty.

I save them and use with the neck and carcass to make soup stock for some turkey and wild rice soup.

when you guys say stock do you mean broth? I don't think I put enough drippings in the gravy and too much flour. I am gonna give it another try for christmas. My stuffing was the business.

So I have no broth but used the drippings, which has lots of butter. I am boiling the gizzards and neck in some drippings and I'm bout to chop it up. I am told I need to let it cool before adding some flour so it won't lump, any credence to this? Once it's cooled I'll add little flour to thicken but mostly drippings. Lets see how it comes out, it already smells much nicer than the thanksgiving gravy.
